Restoring the Recycling Bin in Windows Vista PDF Print E-mail

Windows Vista makes it too easy to delete the Recycling Bin icon from the desktop by right-clicking on the icon and selecting delete. Personally I can't figure out why Microsoft actually enabled this option. I can understand the option to show/un-show the icon on the desktop, but allowing users to right click and delete it is just asking for accidental deletions.

Here is how to get it back:
  1. Right click on the Desktop and choose Personalize.
  2. Click on Change Desktop Icons link in the left menu.
  3. Put a check mark in the Recycle Bin section.
  4. Click OK to apply the changes.
